How to Apply Lip Color

Applying lip color is a simple but important step in enhancing your overall look. Here are some steps to follow when applying lip color:

1. Exfoliate: Start by exfoliating your lips with a lip scrub or a soft toothbrush. This will help remove any dead skin cells and create a smooth base for your lip color.

2. Moisturize: Apply a lip balm to keep your lips hydrated and prevent your lip color from drying out your lips.

3. Apply lip liner: Lip liner helps define your lips and prevents your lip color from bleeding. Choose a liner that is close to your natural lip color or your lip color for a more defined look. Starting at the center of your upper lip, apply liner to the edges of your lips. Repeat on the bottom lip.

4. Apply lip color: Starting at the center of your upper lip, apply the lip color evenly to your lips, using a lip brush or directly from the lipstick bullet. Repeat on the bottom lip.

5. Blot: Blot your lips with a tissue to remove any excess product and help the color last longer.

6. Apply a second coat (optional): For a more intense look, apply a second coat of lip color.

7. Finish: Finish by applying a lip gloss or lip balm for added shine and moisture.

Remember, the key to a long-lasting lip color is to prep your lips beforehand and choose a color that complements your skin tone. Experiment with different shades and formulas to find what works best for you.
